Fresh Pasta (cut in 3 in rounds)
Olive oil
4 T unsalted butter
.25 cup AP Flour
.75 cup whole milk
.33 cup heavy cream
Kosher Salt
.33 cup crème fraiche

To make pasta rounds, roll out pasta dough to the thinnest setting.
Cut into 3 in rounds.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Have a bowl of ice water ready.
Blanch the pasta rounds for about 3 min. then put in bowl of ice water.
Once cool, drain and set aside. Lightly oil and lay out on parchment paper.
To make the béchamel, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture no longer taste floury and smells a little nutty, but has not darkened. Add the milk, heavy cream and 1 T salt and cook, whisking, until thickened, 5-7 minutes.
Take the pan off the heat and add the crème fraiche. Season with salt and white pepper.
To assemble the lasagnettes, lay out 6 rounds on oiled sheet pan. Top each with a 1.5 tsp of béchamel and then place 3-4 meatballs over the béchamel. Continue layering process until you have four layers.
To serve, heat oven to 300 degrees. Add 3 T water to the baking sheet with the lasagnettes and lay a sheet of oiled parchment paper over them. Bake for 10 – 15 minutes or until heated through.
Using a spatula, Put each lasagnette in a pasta bowl. Laddle over some dark chicken stock.
Garnish with shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano.
